The Captive Heart
A succession of tales about the lives and loves of two guys at a Prisoner of War Camp more than five decades. Location shooting at the British occupied portion of Germany adds believability. The primary narrative is composed of Hasek (Redgrave) a Czech soldier that wants to maintain his identity a secret in the Nazis, to achieve so he presents as a deceased English Officer and contrasts with the guy’s wife. Upon liberation they match and opt to keep their lives with them. The other offenders’ tales have been shown episodically.
